Rod writes the yearly “Technology Highlights” book for NASA and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory.

From power supplies that can withstand the extreme cold of deep space for decades, to hyper-miniaturized AI-driven tech that flies spacecraft independently of ground control, to self-healing technology, JPL is at the cutting edge of robotic exploration.

Rod Pyle has written fifteen books on space history, exploration, and development. His most recent books are First on the Moon about Apollo 11, and Space 2.0 about upcoming developments in newspace and exploration

He worked in visual effects on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine as well as various TV pilots.  Rod has made numerous media appearances on PBS, NPR, and The Washington Post, and is a frequent contributor to Space.com, LiveScience, NBC News Online, Yahoo News, the Huffington Post, and more.
